Usually has a decent game away to big teams and he's done it again.  Don't think he was amazing but you can't argue with two goals, hopefully he hits one of his purple patches now.

Makes a big difference being able to rotate the front three. Bobby rested at the weekend and then scores two tonight.

The 2nd goal is a real centre forward goal. Just been around and alive to the danger. We need him in those areas more often

Badly needed some goals. Hopefully he can add one or two more before the end of the season. Had no idea he'd scored as few as 8 all season in all competitions, really poor return. Great performance though and the header was superb.

Meh. As a forward nothing else really matters if you score. And getting 2 is basically a 9/10 performance whatever else you do.

Regardless of his form, in big games against big teams I always trust him to receive the ball in tight spaces and keep us moving.

Loved his 2nd goal, feel like he needed that more than a 30 yard screamer.

If Firmino reaches double figures in goals this season, chances are, we are in top 4.

I think this as well.

Only 1 off his total league goals last year. Goalscoring wise this season has been par for him

Always? I can’t recall another example. It’s like Concorde being able to time travel.

He may not score often but when he’s in the mood, Bobby is a joy to watch.

Good stuff from the Bobster. That header was a mini exocet, and have missed both the kung fu kick and the waving finger. Hopefully keep some of the shiteheads saying things like 'he's done' quiet for a bit.

Abslutely fine with supporting a player but there's also a time when it's time to say goodbye. Shankly and Paisley knew this, let's hope Klopp does.
That's the point; it's Klopp's job to decide when it's time; it's not 'time' just because a bunch of screaming fannies say so on a forum

He still has so many great qualities and I think he brings balance to any front 3.

For sure bring someone in to challenge him but I was glad when I saw he was starting.

I think it's understated how even players like Bobby will have been affected by this strange packed season, after he has played every game possible over the last few years. Give him a proper pre season and he will help us a lot next season.

The pressing and aggression was definitely back last night, if he hadn't scored his performance and workrate was excellent. Delighted to see him score a couple in a big game.
It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.

He found a lot of joy against United this season.   Was so happy to stamp the Mancs yesterday.   Well done Bobby!!!!

When Bobby is bringing that game, he is undroppable. Looked to grow 10 feet when he scored the header, and pressed like a strategic assassin second half, just didn’t give Fred or Mctominay any time. More of the same please Si Senor 🥰
